Persons who have a well-balanced diet generally have a good appetite at mealtime. How is your
appetite? Do you ever find that you are too tired to eat a nourishing (有营养的) breakfast in the
morning? If you do, you are probably not getting enough sleep. Try going to bed earlier at night and see if
your breakfast appetite is improved.
Do you sometimes find that you are not hungry for lunch at school? Perhaps it is because you eat the
same kinds of food for lunch every day. Try varying (变换) the foods you eat for lunch. You will probably
find that your appetite improves greatly.
Do you sometimes find that you are not hungry at dinnertime in the evening, even when your mother
has got ready a favorite dish of yours for you? There could be several reasons for this. You may not be
getting enough exercise after school. There is nothing like exercise and activity to improve the appetite.
Perhaps you are eating snack foods that take away the appetite. Have you ever noticed that eating a piece
of fruit or drinking a glass of milk? Try to avoid (避免) eating candy for snacks.
